Upcycled Bold Ikat Silk Disk Ornament
From the heart of Afghanistan, this beautiful upcycled Ikat charm is made of traditional hand-woven and hand-dyed Ikat fabric from Uzbekistan, and is sewn by women artisans in Kabul. 100% of profits support Zarif Design, a social enterprise based in Kabul, that empowers Afghan weavers and embroiderers, and promotes economic sustainability through the use of traditional skills and materials.
** Please note that every handmade ornament is a little different. Slight variations in size, shape and small imperfections give them their handmade charm! We have included images to show the range of variation in the color and patterns of these products.
